When Zhongxing Yin was about to leave, he found that Gao Qiang had prepared a very heavy betrothal gift for Xun Shu on his behalf.
But he couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied, just because he, as the orthodox big sect of the Xun family, had prepared so many betrothal gifts when he went to visit the small sect, which was really a loss of face for him.
However, the incident happened suddenly, so he didn't bother to argue with Gao Qiang and just went to Xun Mansion in a hurry.
When Xun Shu learned that Zhong Xingyin came with a gift, he couldn't help but was a little surprised, but he was not surprised.
He personally came to the gate to greet him. When he saw Zhong Xingyin, he immediately cupped his hands and said:
"Oh! A doctor from the Bank of China is so busy, how can he still have time to visit his humble home?"
Zhong Xingyin laughed loudly and returned the courtesy:
“Dr. That’s it.”
"Previously, I saw that Dr. Xun had seized the position of First Minister and was busy with state affairs, so I didn't come here to bother you. Today, I rarely have free time, so I came here to pay a visit!"
Xun Shu introduced Zhong Xingyin into the lobby and said in agreement:
"What the BOC doctor said is so true, so true! Our two families should really move around more..."
When they arrived at the hall, the two of them sat down, and the servant quickly served them water and snacks.
Xun Shu winked, and the servants retreated one after another. Only Xun Shu and Zhong Xingyin were left in the entire hall.
Zhong Xingyin took a sip of water and said:
“Dr.
Xun Shu touched his long beard briefly and did not deny this:
"What Mr. Bank of China said is true! It's just..."
Zhong Xingyin smiled and said:
"If you have anything to say, Doctor Xun, just say it. You and I can speak freely today without any worries."
Xun Shu smiled:
"Oh, it's nothing. As the doctor of the Bank of China said, it is natural for our two families to live in harmony, and this is exactly what the monarch wants."
Hearing this, Zhong Xingyin shook his head again:
"But over the years, especially after Fan Xianzi Bulu, Doctor Xun seems to have a deep opinion of our Zhongxing clan!"
When Xun Shu heard this, his expression remained the same:
"Oh, it must be that Dr. Zhonghang has misunderstood. How can we Xun be dissatisfied with Mr. Zhonghang?"
"It's just... Doctor of the Bank of China may not have been a guest in my Xun Mansion for a long time. Today's sudden arrival makes me a little frightened!"
Zhongxing Yin smiled and said:
"Haha, our two families have not been in contact with each other for a long time, but no one can change these blood relatives. Do you think so, Mr. Xun?"
Xun Shu couldn't help but nodded and agreed:
"That is, that is."
Immediately afterwards, Zhong Xingyin changed the topic and suddenly said:
"Nowadays, the contradiction between our Zhongxing family and the Zhao family has become increasingly prominent. Recently, I suddenly led private soldiers to surround the Zhao family's residence. I wonder...how does Doctor Xun view this matter?"
After the two tested each other, Zhong Xingyin finally got to the point.
At this time, Xun Shu pretended to be confused:
"Oh? Isn't it a misunderstanding? Moreover, the Zhao family's house has long been empty, and no one has suffered any losses. You don't need to care about this matter so much, right? What's more, even the king is like this today I mean, why should Mr. Bank of China be so worried about this matter?!"
Zhong Xingyin couldn't help but sigh:
"Hey... I won't hide it from Doctor Xun, but this matter... I'm afraid it's not that simple!"
After hearing this, Xun Shu still pretended to be pretentious and said with a slight smile:
"Oh? According to what Dr. Zhongxing said... is there something else that you are still hiding?"
BOC Yinyan said:
"Master Xun knows everything, but why bother asking?"
Zhong Xingyin made it clear directly, but Xun Shu had no choice but to accept it. I saw Xun Shu holding his hands towards the palace and saying loudly:
"Since Xun is now a minister, he must be loyal to the king. And the monarch has already made a conclusion on the battle between the Zhongxing doctor and the Zhao family. How can Xun be at odds with the monarch?"
"So, Xun will not stand in the way of what the BOC official wants to do. As long as the official does not endanger the monarch or our Xun family, then why should we care?"
Obviously, Xun Shu's words were a hint to Zhong Xingyin: The fight between the Zhong Xing family and the Zhao family can be noisy. As long as the monarch is not involved, who will lose and win after the incident? Xun Shu can just watch the fire from the other side. Will not take sides.
Now, he only stands on the side of the monarch!
And Zhong Xingyin naturally heard the implication of Xun Shu's words. So, he simply made it clear:
"Can Dr. Xun really be so biased?"
Xun Shu smiled slightly again:
"Haha, the situation of our Xun family must be very clear to the doctor of the Bank of China. With the ability of our Xun family, we have no intention of getting involved. What's more, the doctor of the Bank of China and our Xun family are from the same branch. I Why does Xun Shuang need to be an enemy of the doctor?"
Hearing this, Zhongxing Yin couldn't help but be silent for a long time. Finally, he finally made it clear:
"I dare to ask Doctor Xun... If I want to lead troops to attack Zhao's Jinyang, what will your Excellency tell the monarch? And what should I do?"
Xun Shu pretended to be surprised, with a look of disbelief on his face.
"Ah? Why do you say this, sir? The dispute between the doctor and Mrs. Zhao... won't reach this level, right?"
Zhong Xingyin sneered, lowered his voice, and replied in a gloomy tone:
"There is no need to say more about the rights and wrongs of this. In this situation, I hope that Dr. How can the general be attached without it? I hope Dr. Xun can think about the pros and cons of this and be careful about it!"
After hearing this, Xun Shu couldn't help but narrow his eyes to a slit, and snorted coldly:
"Haha, what the BOC doctor said is true!"
Xun Shu did not make any promises to Zhong Xingyin, which made Zhong Xingyin extremely unhappy.
"Doctor Xun...you...don't have anything to say about this?"
Xun Shu replied:
"Zhao's attitude has been made clear just now. I, the Xun family, will never be involved in the grudges between the master and the Zhao family!"
Zhongxing Yin laughed forcefully and tried again:
"Oh? Master Xun really doesn't care?"
Xun Shu also smiled slightly with Zhong Xingyin, cupped his hands and said:
"Since this matter has nothing to do with me, Mr. Xun, why should I be involved in it? Why should the BOC doctor be suspicious of such a simple truth?"
When Zhong Xingyin heard what Xun Shu said, he smiled and said:
"Haha, if Dr. Xun can ignore past grudges like this, he is a true gentleman!"
Later, after the two exchanged polite greetings, Zhong Xingyin and Xun Shu walked out of the lobby hand in hand.
Zhongxing Yin quickly ordered people to deliver the heavy gifts that had been prepared.
Xun Shu also smiled and accepted everything very knowingly, and kept saying:
"Oh! It's so polite! It's so polite!"
Seeing the joy on Xun Shu's face, Zhong Xingyin also nodded in agreement. Fortunately, Gao Qiang prepared the betrothal gift for him at that time. It was just right at this moment.
After Zhong Xingyin came out of Xun's Mansion, he was pondering what Xun Shu had said before.
"Xun Shu...can he really be neutral?"
Obviously, this is still a problem.
